1. Standard Bill of Materials is under the CIS Bill of Materials in the
reports pull down. Do you have a CIS database all set up? If not, you need
to go to the Bill of Materials under the Tools pulldown and enter some text
strings in the menu. You can save those text strings in notepad for later
use in one or more designs.
2. Are you entering your properties in the schematic symbol editor? If so,
you may want to consider other ways of doing that, either through the CIS
database or directly in the design in the spreadsheets available. If you
adopt one of these alternates, each schematic symbol can be used for a wide
variety of parts.

Subject: [PCB_FORUM] Capture CIS Std BOM-where are my property values?
Hi All,
I'm new to the Capture Front End. I've set certain Schematic Part
properties such as 'DESCRIPTION', 'PACKAGE', etc. specified for some parts
in the Schematic. I've specified these User-defined property names in the
'Standard Bill Of Materials ' dialog for generating them as outputs in the
report. But the problem I have now is, the values assigned for these custom
properties do not appear in the Output file. What should I do to make them
appear?
Regards,
Suresh
